The Bengals play the Chiefs with a trip to the Super Bowl is on the line in what could be Will Holden Jersey one of the most exciting football games of the season. A high stakes AFC Championship that will feature a hefty number of stars from Travis Kelce to JaMarr Chase.Both teams are healthy going into the game. Here are three keys to victory for the Bengals. Dont Force Joey B to Run for His LifeThe Bengals go as Joe Burrow goes and giving up nine sacks isnt something they can repeat if they're going to beat the Chiefs. Their pa s protection must be better. The odds of winning arent in Cincinnatis favor when they allow Burrow to live in a state of dure s. Theyre 2-4 when they allow five or more sacks in a game.Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones brought Burrow Trinity Benson Jersey down twice in week 17 and as a team, Kansas City recorded four sacks and 10 quarterback hits that day. Expect the defensive line to come out with their hair on fire aiming to make Burrow as uncomfortable as po sible.Dont Let Mahomes Beat You on the GroundPatrick Mahomes had a productive game against Cincinnati in Week 17 completing 26-of-59 pa ses for 259 yards and two touchdowns. Mahomes brings a vicious pa sing attack, but he can also kill a defense with his legs. He led the Chiefs in rushing last week against the Bills with 69 rushing yards on seven carries.He has the ability to take off and make a big play and Lou Anarumo needs to Shane Zylstra Jersey make sure his crew is ready for every trick in Andy Reids bag.Let Joe Mixon Go, Go, GoBurrow and JaMarr Chase burned the Chiefs in Week 17.Kansas City will likely try to shut that connection down and dare Cincinnati to run the ball, but that shouldnt be a problem for a team that has Joe Mixon in the backfield. Mixon only had 46 rushing yards on 12 carries Ryan McCollum Jersey in Week 17, but this season the Bengals are 7-1 this season when Mixon averages 4.1 yards or more a carry. If Brian Callahan can ensure 20 carries or more to Mixon on Sunday, it could allow Cincinnati to win the time of po se sion battle and keep the ball out of Mahomes' hands.
